Things I liked:This product has a secure lid! It isn't a screw on but it has detents all around the circumference of the lid and it takes a deliberate effort to get it off. The pellets are well formed, free of defects and reasonably clean.Things I would have changed:There is nothing I can think of to improve on this product. The price is very good compared to other offerings, the accuracy better than more expensive pellets tested alongside these, and the downrange performance was the best. Maybe a pellet weighing about 15.5 to16.0 grains for higher energy transfer would be nice.What others should know:I test pellets extensively firing thousands of rounds each year, recording the results and collecting them in a database on my computer. One of the things I do is to Chronograph the muzzle velocity and the 20 yard velocity and then calculate a performance factor which can be used to determine how well the pellets maintains its velocity downrange. These pellets are the new champions of velocity retention! I have records of 44 pellets thus far and none equal the velocity retention of these. Their accuracy was also first or second among 7 pellet products tested in both my Sheridan Blue Streak rifle and E-20 series Sheridan CO2 pistol. The initial velocities were slightly lower than anticipated from both guns but they made up for that very quickly in the first ten yards of travel. Interestingly, the former 1ST place velocity retention champ had the same characteristic and was also made in the Czech Republic.

Things I liked:I am occasionally getting 3/8" 5 shot groups at 15 yards from my Sheridan C9 rifle with these, the best by far of any I've tried so far. I will usually get 3 out of 5 into 3/8" or less. They usually slip right into the breach without requiring any force. With others, I suspect the skirt is being damaged on the way in and negatively affecting accuracy.Things I would have changed:I do get a few definite flyers. Can't really say it's the pellets, but... A bit pricey. Not that long ago you didn't pay too much more for a brick of good .22 rimfire ammo. Also, wish they made some around 11.5 grains.What others should know:I am new to air rifles. Got this one at an estate sale. Just rebuilt the air valve in the rifle and still improving the trigger. Put a peep sight on it but was dealing with some glare off the front sight, plus my 58 year old eyes aren't what they were. I'm used to scopes. Hope to improve these groups with some fine tuning and better technique.

Things I liked:Very impressive pellet. Weight is great for 5mm.Things I would have changed:Nothing. JSB, please make a wad-cutter for 5mm.What others should know:These pellets shoot extremely well out of my super-tuned Beeman R1. They are 13.73 grain which is more like a .22 weight and am getting 820 fps with incredible accuracy.

Things I liked:Awesome pellets - the most accurate I have ever used.Things I would have changed:No changesWhat others should know:I shoot these with my Thoeben Eliminator and 2 Blue Streaks. I have complete accuracy at 75 yards. These pellets may cost more but they are totally worth it.

Things I liked:Fit. Shape. Size. Cost ($0.025 ea.) Come in a tin not a box.Things I would have changed:Screw on lid for the tin would make it perfect.What others should know:Got these for my 1974 Sheridan Blue Streak 5mm. Great fit. Pushes in smooth. Tin does arrive very secure, at least mine did. The detents in the lid to secure it seems solid for on the bench, not sure if it would stay on if dropped. $0.025 per pellet. Haven't shot many yet, but my Sheridan seems to love them.

Things I liked:Soft lead, clean, and none were damaged in my sample. Seems like a very high quality pellet and is packed 500 per tin.Things I would have changed:Nothing with the pellets themselves but a screw top container sure would be nice.What others should know:I Shoot these out of an R9 and they are the most accurate pellet in my particular rifle at ranges past 30 yards.

Things I liked:Fit and consistency. Things I would have changed:Love to see a hollow point and a heavy weight added. What others should know:Can only speak to my gun which is a Sheridan blue streak which I've owned since 1969.I had the steroid tune done many years ago. It still shoots great. As for these pellets I'm getting one whole groups at 25 yards. Enough said!

Things I liked:These pellets are clean and free from lead residue. Visual inspection proves them to look extremely uniform with no seams in evidence. They have also proven to be very accurate when shot from my Benjamin Sheridan Blue Streak. Things I would have changed:Nothing.What others should know:Slightly more expensive than another brand of .20 cal, but I believe they are well worth the extra $.

Things I liked:Great pellet for old rocker safety Sheridan. Easy to load; actually a pleasure to load, not the least bit tricky. Very accurate at 11 yards. Not one flier in the first approximately 250 shots taken. This pellet in this gun LOVES to hit its target!Things I would have changed:I feel that it is so excellent, I couldn't begin to think how it might be improved.What others should know:So far all of my shooting has been indoors at about 11 yards. At that distance this pellet is very nice plinking and target ammo at 3 pumps.

Things I liked:Nice tool and parts, certainly adequate for the intended purpose. Perfect fit in the mid-1970s rocker safety Sheridan Blue Streak that I brought back to life for a buddy. We used to shoot the very same gun as kids, and now it's back in action. I found it a rewarding project and much more fun than packing and shipping the gun for service (to P.A., of course!).Things I would have changed:I wish my learning curve was better! It took me three tries to get it right. No fault of the kit. It was my first time inside a multi-pump pneumatic. I think my main problem was poor job cleanliness on the first tries, I didn't get the old gunk out entirely at first.What others should know:If you try this as your first rebuild of a multi-pump pneumatic of this sort, be prepared to spend some time on trial and error. Definitely review the directions thoroughly, and also seek out additional instructions and tips that can be found in multiple places on the internet.

Things I liked:Performance and Accuracy is second to none. Best all around pellet for vintage Sheridan Air Rifles. I'm a collector of old Sheridan's and this pellet performs outstanding in all rifles. Things I would have changed:Like the old saying goes. "If it ain't broke, Don't fix it" Please don't change characteristics or try to embellish on this product. What others should know:Biggest fear and concerns.....Availability of this product. Sheridan Air Rifles are no longer in production in .20 cal. The consumer doesn't have to many pellet manufacture choices and selections in .20 cal. I think .20 is going to be a end of a great era.

Things I liked:About 25 years ago I bought a new Beeman R10 air rifle. These JSB's are the most accurate pellet I've ever fired through the gun. They are superb!Things I would have changed:Is it just me or is the JSB tin difficult to open? I, along with the many others who have written reviews, would appreciate a screw on lid.What others should know:The JSB's are a nice tight fit in the chamber. I always use the round end of an old Beeman pell seat tool to smooth the pellet skirt prior to shooting.
Love the great carton packaging by Pyramid. My pellets came wrapped in foam with cut out cardboard taped to top and bottom.
Terrific web site you've got, Pyramid.

Things I liked:All pellets are well built and consistent in shape and size. Using only iron sights, accuracy up to 15 yards very good.Things I would have changed:If the price would benefit the consumer, make a 1000 count tin to lower the price.What others should know:I'm using these pellets on my Weihrauch HW 90. They average 828 fps which equates to just shy of 21 foot pounds of energy at the muzzle. Even for a dome pellet, they do expand a bit upon impact. Expansion can be seen on my youtube video.

Things I liked:Everything. Great price. Things I would have changed:Nothing.What others should know:Most accurate .20 pellet I've used in my Sheridan Blue Streak. An excellent substitute for the Webley ACCU Pells that PA no longer stocks.

Things I liked:Very clean and uniform in size. The best pellet for my Beeman R1. I can get very nice groups at 27 yards. Excellent for vermin elimination.Things I would have changed:NothingWhat others should know:See how well these pellets work with your gun and then shoot nothing else. JSB Diabolo Exact pellets work very well with all my air guns. It's a premier pellet for target shooting and hunting.

Things I liked:These work very well in my Sheridan Blue Streak. They are consistently uniform and they are clean with no debris.Things I would have changed:Kinda pricey, but they're all getting to be that way.What others should know:I tried these after reading much on forums about their performance in the Blue Streak. I am not disappointed.

Things I liked:nice price, uniform pellet, well packaged.Things I would have changed:screw on lidWhat others should know:These shoot the best out of my 1970 Racine Sheridan. Consistently hit dime sized shoot and see dots at 25 feet, off hand.
The old Benji cylinder pellets almost shoot as well but tried these on a recommendation and glad I did as they shoot even better. At 8 pumps these shoot at 675-680 fps over the crony.

Things I liked:These shoot a group at 15 yards under the size of a dime from my 50 year old Sheridan. Excellent packaging from PA.Things I would have changed:NothingWhat others should know:Try these for your old Dans, you won't be dissipointed.
